Flooding: Lagos To Re-engineer Canals, Drainage Systems – Ambode by centvin008(m): 6:04pm On Jul 10, 2017 |
Lagos State Governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode on Monday said the flooding caused by torrential rainfalls in the state within the last few days will soon be a thing of the past. http://www.channelstv.com/2017/07/10/working-well-embark-holistic-solutions-permanently-address-flooding-ambode/ 10 Likes 3 Shares

I repeat, prophesy has gone forth that by 2050, Lagos will be consumed by ocean surge. It will look like joke. it has been warned that good drainage system should be built to avert it now cos the signs are even closer than prophesied 21 Likes 5 Shares |

This supposed to have been the earlier plan so that Lagos (Island specifically) would not be encountering this issue of flooding though we can take exception for the fact that naturally the terrain of the island is at/below sea level but the mentality of black man is wire shamefully hence prefer cure to prevention instead of the other way round. All the same kudos to ambode for his attention on the issue and we look forward to having his prompt action on it. Lalasticlala, another flood issue again o 3 Likes |

afroniger:true, but there is an adage "a stich in time saves nine" if he had created drainage facilities in advance, there wouldn't have been a high rate of flooding like this. my opinion tho 2 Likes 2 Shares |

afroniger: A better leader preempts, especially when dealing with an annual event. But Ambode has pleased me so far. I don't expect for him to disappoint me now. |

Re-engineer? Like the Lekki-Epe roundabouts? When you lie that you will do something and believe your own lie that you have done it, there is no need to do it again 3 Likes |

Re-Engineeer canals? Instead of demolishing the entire Lekki and VGC like they did to Maroko Ambode u are wasting ur time and Lagos state money, if u like restructure the canals, flooding on the island will remain inevitable, as long as Lekki phase 1 and VGC still exists, the flooding will never stop, those estates are meant to be canals/ drainage ways in the first place and not housing estates. The greatest fear of Lagosians is now The Eko Atlantic Project, the inevitable DOOMSDAY mother of all flood due to the Eko Atlantic is less than ten years from now--Quote me anywhere The only lasting solution is to Demolish all the houses in Lekki and VgC and convert the whole land to CANAL in order to allow for proper flow of water and prevent flood. There should be nothing like Lekki phase 1, VGC and other estates on lekki /Ajah axis, those places should be entirely a canal and not housing estates---Quote me anywhere 16 Likes 3 Shares |

There are certain things about Nigeria that never cease to amaze me. What's so difficult in constructing proper drainage facilities. For God sake its not rocket science. Instead of building pedestrian bridges and commissioning police cars why can't our government focus on the important things. Someone just lost his Honda crosstour (950k Bill), haba. What exactly does Ambode and tinubu do with all the so called internally generated income. Please tell me what's the essence of building Eco Atlantic when lekki , vgc and Victoria island are all under water. It's indeed a curse to be born a Nigerian. YES I SAID IT. 7 Likes |
